Must've felt like you have a new superpower or something! Claire, your mum and you (from your tweets) sound amazingly positive considering her condition, my best wishes to you both.

What I remember from when I was very young was running down the stairs and saying "I can read!" to my Mom when I discovered that I could. What a turning point that felt like.

I think the 'I am alive' happened quite recently when I was doing a moonwalk (26.2 miles powerwalk for breast cancer charity) I hadn't trained for it and was feeling in pain and very sorry for myself. Then at about 11 miles, my mum text me and said something daft like theses boots are made for walking. This was about 3 in the morning and she was texting from hospital awaiting news about whether she would lose her leg or not. I think I cried to myself for the rest of the marathon, feeling lucky that I had a mum like that.
